Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1957, this property is functional and move-in ready but shows significant dating. The kitchen features older tile countertops and cabinetry that appears to be a refresh rather than a full modern renovation (likely >20 years old). While the hardwood floors are in good condition and a newer HVAC condenser is visible, the overall age of the systems and cosmetic finishes align with the 'Fair' criteria requiring minor repairs and updates.
The attached one-bedroom, one-bathroom ADU with its own kitchenette offers significant value for multi-generational living or as a potential rental income stream.
At 1,800 square feet, this residence provides a more spacious interior layout than many typical 1950s-era homes in the Gardena area.
The property features a large concrete patio and a generous yard with mature greenery, creating an ideal environment for outdoor dining and social gatherings.
The assigned local schools, particularly the high school with a rating of 3, may be a drawback for families prioritizing high-performing educational institutions.
The property lacks any significant views, which may impact its competitive appeal compared to other Southern California homes with city or landscape vistas.
Welcome to 1118 Rumbold Avenue, a Gardena home designed for comfortable living with a little extra flexibility built right in. The main residence offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms, while the attached one-bedroom, one-bath Guest Suite with its own kitchenette creates a versatile space for extended family, guests, a home office, or additional income potential. Out front, lush succulents and mature greenery create a warm, inviting first impression, with a generous yard that gives the home a sense of space and privacy. Out back, the concrete patio area is ready for weekend barbecues, outdoor dining, or an easygoing place to unwind at the end of the day. Whether you're looking for room to spread out, space to keep loved ones close, or a property that can adapt as your needs change, 1118 Rumbold Avenue offers a unique combination of comfort, versatility, and Southern California living.
